    Has anyone out there created or found a good 3D printer file or set of files for creating a button hole cover/plug for a cabinet? I've got an extra hole drilled in a game I'm working on - was hoping to just print a quick solution to plug it. Please make jokes about plugging holes and stuff - but also send me any good info you may have on tracking down something I can print for a standard size button hole.

    Thank you!!

    Thanks! I did look at those, I was hoping to find more of the threaded/nut style - kind of like this but with the thinner threaded section:

    I'm no help in the 3D printing world, but I know I usually put a carriage bolt in extra holes. Usually by the coin door, of course, but have had extra holes in sides of cabinets, as well. I either shine it up or paint depending on where it's going. Does a good job of hiding the hole or at least makes it look better.
